1.2 Proper use
The charger is designed for charging (fast and normal), discharging and trickle-charging batteries
based on the following technologies: NiCd, NiMH, Lead-Acid, Lead-Gel, Li-Ion and Li-Po. The maxi-
mum charge current is 5 A, and the unit can charge batteries with a nominal voltage in the range 1.2
V to 24 V (NC, NiMH). No other type of use is permissible; any other usage invalidates the guarantee
and negates our liability. The same applies to modifications and conversion work carried out on the
unit.
Before you attempt to use the charger for the first time, please read right through these
instructions attentively, paying particular attention to the safety notes.
Do not attempt to charge any type of rechargeable battery apart from the following
types: NiCd, NiMH, Lead-Acid, Lead-Gel, Li-Ion and Li-Po. Never attempt to charge dry
cells with this charger - regardless of type! Dry batteries may explode when charged,
potentially causing severe injury.
Note regarding the charging of Lithium-Ion batteries with integral charge circuits
Many Lithium-Ion batteries, such as the Sony NP 500, the JVC BN-V712U or the Nokia 8110
or 81101, are equipped with integral charge / protective circuitry. The basic rule is that batte-
ries with integral electronics must not be connected to the ALC 8500-2 Expert, as the elec-
tronics could be damaged, or the batteries might not be completely charged.
Before you connect a Lithium-Ion battery to the ALC 8500-2 Expert, please check with the
manufacturer that the pack does not include integral charge circuitry or protective electro-
nics.
Always read and observe the instructions for charging provided by the battery manuf-
acturer.
2 Safety Notes
– The ALC 8500-2 Expert is designed to operate on a mains voltage of 220 - 240 V AC, 50 Hz. For
this reason it must be handled with exactly the same amount of care as any other mains-powered
piece of equipment.
– This device must not be allowed to fall into the hands of children. Store and operate it in such a way
that it is always out of the reach of children.
– Keep the charger’s back panel and ventilation slots unobstructed, to ensure that an adequate airflow
can reach the integral cooling fan.
– Select a suitable location for the charger: it should offer good ventilation, be out of direct sunshine,
well away from radiators and other heaters, motors and anything which vibrates. Never subject it
to excessive humidity, dust and heat (e.g. in a closed vehicle). Do not place the charger on a tab-
lecloth, a deep-pile carpeted floor or similar surface, as this could obstruct proper air circulation.
– The device is approved only for use indoors.
– Do not subject the device to temperatures below 0°C or above 45°C.
– Operate the charger only with the case closed.
– The device should only ever be cleaned using a soft dry cloth; if the case is very dirty, it is permis-
sible to moisten the cloth slightly beforehand. Disconnect the charger from the mains supply before
cleaning.
– Take great care to avoid any liquid entering the device. If fluid should find its way into the machine,
disconnect it from the mains supply immediately, and consult our Service Department.
– Don’t leave the packing materials lying around; children could pick them up and play with them,
and this could be harmful, e.g. the plastic bags, plastic film or securing bands.
